MMA Ranking Myth – Need big wins

December 2nd, 2009

Recently I’ve noticed a growing trend of people trying to claim someone can’t be “top 10″ because they haven’t beaten “top 10″ people. As a whole the term “top 10″ is incredibly flawed, but I’m going to try to navigate it as best I can during this rant while I explore this perception that some MMA fans have.

November 11th, 2009

A lot of the talk in recent days has centered around Fedor and Rogers (which is understandable), but let us not forget that there were a lot of other great fighters on the card. I’d like to take a more in-depth look at several of the fighters on the card and see where they might go from here…

Fedor Vs Rogers Countdown

I should be happier. Most days I should be happier, but today I should be even happier. Sadly, I’m finding myself more worried than excited.

Shogun Vs Machida – Closure

October 31st, 2009

In the last week or so I’ve sat down several times to try to talk about something (anything!) other than Shogun Vs Machida. Sadly, the voices in my head aren’t getting any quieter and I’m really starting to get behind on other things.

Either way, I hope that after this at least I will be able to leave it all behind…
